Multi-site enhancement of osteogenesis: peptide-functionalized GelMA hydrogels with three-dimensional cultures of human dental pulp stem cells. Regen Biomater 2024; 11:rbae090. [PMID: 39193556 PMCID: PMC11349188 DOI: 10.1093/rb/rbae090] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/15/2024] [Revised: 06/23/2024] [Accepted: 07/18/2024] [Indexed: 08/29/2024] Open
Abstract
Human dental pulp stem cells (hDPSCs) have demonstrated greater proliferation and osteogenic differentiation potential in certain studies compared to other types of mesenchymal stem cells, making them a promising option for treating craniomaxillofacial bone defects. However, due to low extracting concentration and long amplifying cycles, their access is limited and utilization rates are low. To solve these issues, the principle of bone-forming peptide-1 (BFP1) in situ chemotaxis was utilized for the osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs to achieve simultaneous and synergistic osteogenesis at multiple sites. BFP1-functionalized gelatin methacryloyl hydrogel provided a 3D culture microenvironment for stem cells. The experimental results showed that the 3D composite hydrogel scaffold constructed in this study increased the cell spread area by four times compared with the conventional GelMA scaffold. Furthermore, the problems of high stem cell dosage and low rate of utilization were alleviated by orchestrating the programmed proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of hDPSCs. In vivo, high-quality repair of critical bone defects was achieved using hDPSCs extracted from a single tooth, and multiple 'bone island'-like structures were successfully observed that rapidly induced robust bone regeneration. In conclusion, this study suggests that this kind of convenient, low-cost, island-like osteogenesis strategy involving a low dose of hDPSCs has great potential for repairing craniomaxillofacial critical-sized bone defects.

Multifaceted Materials for Enhanced Osteogenesis and Antimicrobial Properties on Bioplastic Polyetheretherketone Surfaces: A Review. ACS OMEGA 2024; 9:17784-17807.

Abstract
Implant-associated infections and the increasing number of bone implants loosening and falling off after implantation have become urgent global challenges, hence the need for intelligent alternative solutions to combat implant loosening and falling off. The application of polyetheretherketone (PEEK) in biomedical and medical therapy has aroused great interest, especially because its elastic modulus close to bone provides an effective alternative to titanium implants, thereby preventing the possibility of bone implants loosening and falling off due to the mismatch of elastic modulus. In this Review, we provide a comprehensive overview of recent advances in surface modifications to prevent bone binding deficiency and bacterial infection after implantation of bone implants, starting with inorganics for surface modification, followed by organics that can effectively promote bone integration and antimicrobial action. In addition, surface modifications derived from cells and related products of biological activity have been proposed, and there is increasing evidence of clinical potential. Finally, the advantages and future challenges of surface strategies against medical associated poor osseointegration and infection are discussed, with promising prospects for developing novel osseointegration and antimicrobial PEEK materials.

Define of Optimal Addition Period of Osteogenic Peptide to Accelerate the Osteogenic Differentiation of Human Pluripotent Stem Cells. Tissue Eng Regen Med 2024; 21:291-308. [PMID: 37903982 PMCID: PMC10825087 DOI: 10.1007/s13770-023-00597-y] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/02/2023] [Revised: 07/15/2023] [Accepted: 09/05/2023] [Indexed: 11/01/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND The addition of growth factiors is commonly applied to improve the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. However, for human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs), their complex differentiation processes result in the unknown effect at different stages. In this study, we focused on the widely used bone forming peptide-1 (BFP-1) and investigated the effect and mechanisms of its addition on the osteogenic induction of hPSCs as a function of the supplementation period. METHODS Monolayer-cultured hPSCs were cultured in osteogenic induction medium for 28 days, and the effect of BFP-1 peptide addition at varying weeks was examined. After differentiation for varying days (0, 7, 14, 21 and 28), the differentiation efficiency was determined by RT-PCR, flow cytometry, immunofluorescence, and alizarin red staining assays. Moreover, the expression of marker genes related to germ layers and epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) was investigated at day 7. RESULTS Peptide treatment during the first week promoted the generation of mesoderm cells and mesenchymal-like cells from hiPSCs. Then, the upregulated expression of osteogenesis marker genes/proteins was detected in both hESCs and hiPSCs during subsequent inductions with BFP-1 peptide treatment. Fortunately, further experimental design confirmed that treating the BFP-1 peptide during 7-21 days showed even better performance for hESCs but was ineffective for hiPSCs. CONCLUSION The differentiation efficiency of cells could be improved by determining the optimal treatment period. Our study has great value in maximizing the differentiation of hPSCs by adding osteogenesis peptides based on the revealed mechanisms and promoting the application of hPSCs in bone tissue regeneration.

Abstract
Severe burns threaten patient lives due to pain, inflammation, bacterial infection, and scarring. Most burn dressings that are commonly used perform a single function and are not well suited for the management of deep burns. Therefore, a multifunctional antimicrobial peptide- and stem cell-loaded macroporous hydrogel that can fight bacterial infection and regulate wound healing progression by temporally regulating cytokine production by internal stem cells is developed. The macroporous skeletal hydrogel is manufactured via the cryogenic gelation of hyaluronic acid (cryogel). Based on the oxidative polymerization reaction of dopamine, the antimicrobial peptide DP7 is immobilized on the surface of the cryogel (DA7CG). Placental mesenchymal stem cells (PMSCs) are then packaged inside the macroporous hydrogel (DA7CG@C). According to the results of in vitro and in vivo experiments, during the inflammatory phase, DP7 inhibits infection and modulates inflammation; during the proliferative phase, DA7CG@C accelerates the regeneration of skin, blood vessels, and hair follicles via internal stem cells; and during the remodeling phase, DA7CG@C contributes to extracellular matrix remodeling due to the ability of DP7 to regulate the paracrine secretion of PMSCs, synergistically promoting scar-free healing. DA7CG@C can participate in all phases of wound healing; therefore, it is a promising dressing for burn treatment.

Abstract
The regeneration of weight-bearing bone defects and critical-sized cartilage defects remains a significant challenge. A wide range of nano-biomaterials are available for the treatment of bone/cartilage defects. However, their poor compatibility and biodegradability pose challenges to the practical applications of these nano-based biomaterials. Natural biomaterials inspired by the cell units (e.g., nucleic acids and proteins), have gained increasing attention in recent decades due to their versatile functionality, compatibility, biodegradability, and great potential for modification, combination, and hybridization. In the field of bone/cartilage regeneration, natural nano-based biomaterials have presented an unparalleled role in providing optimal cues and microenvironments for cell growth and differentiation. In this review, we systematically summarize the versatile building blocks inspired by the cell unit used as natural nano-based biomaterials in bone/cartilage regeneration, including nucleic acids, proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, and membranes. In addition, the opportunities and challenges of natural nano-based biomaterials for the future use of bone/cartilage regeneration are discussed.

Abstract
There has been growing discovery and use of therapeutic peptides in drug delivery and tissue engineering. Peptides are smaller than proteins and can be formulated into drug delivery systems without significant loss of their bioactivity, which remains a concern with proteins. However, the smaller size of peptides has made the controlled release of these bioactive molecules from carriers challenging. Thus, there has been increasing development of carriers to improve the controlled release of peptides by leveraging hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions between the peptide and the carrier. The focus of this review paper is to critically discuss synthetic and natural nanoparticles and microparticles that have been investigated for the controlled delivery of peptides with emphasis on the underlying interactions.

Abstract
Peptides, short protein fragments, can emulate the functions of their full-length native counterparts. Peptides are considered potent recombinant protein alternatives due to their specificity, high stability, low production cost, and ability to be easily tailored and immobilized. Stem cell proliferation and differentiation processes are orchestrated by an intricate interaction between numerous growth factors and proteins and their target receptors and ligands. Various growth factors, functional proteins, and cellular matrix-derived peptides efficiently enhance stem cell adhesion, proliferation, and directed differentiation. For that, peptides can be immobilized on a culture plate or conjugated to scaffolds, such as hydrogels or synthetic matrices. In this review, we assess the applications of a variety of peptides in stem cell adhesion, culture, organoid assembly, proliferation, and differentiation, describing the shortcomings of recombinant proteins and their full-length counterparts. Furthermore, we discuss the challenges of peptide applications in stem cell culture and materials design, as well as provide a brief outlook on future directions to advance peptide applications in boosting stem cell quality and scalability for clinical applications in tissue regeneration.

[PMID: 36975656 PMCID: PMC10048667 DOI: 10.3390/gels9030207] [Citation(s) in RCA: 5] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/16/2023] [Revised: 03/03/2023] [Accepted: 03/05/2023] [Indexed: 03/12/2023] Open
Abstract
Scientists have been attempting to improve the properties of mesoporous materials and expand their application since the 1990s, and the combination with hydrogels, macromolecular biological materials, is one of the research focuses currently. Uniform mesoporous structure, high specific surface area, good biocompatibility, and biodegradability make the combined use of mesoporous materials more suitable for the sustained release of loaded drugs than single hydrogels. As a joint result, they can achieve tumor targeting, tumor environment stimulation responsiveness, and multiple therapeutic platforms such as photothermal therapy and photodynamic therapy. Due to the photothermal conversion ability, mesoporous materials can significantly improve the antibacterial ability of hydrogels and offer a novel photocatalytic antibacterial mode. In bone repair systems, mesoporous materials remarkably strengthen the mineralization and mechanical properties of hydrogels, aside from being used as drug carriers to load and release various bioactivators to promote osteogenesis. In hemostasis, mesoporous materials greatly elevate the water absorption rate of hydrogels, enhance the mechanical strength of the blood clot, and dramatically shorten the bleeding time. As for wound healing and tissue regeneration, incorporating mesoporous materials can be promising for enhancing vessel formation and cell proliferation of hydrogels. In this paper, we introduce the classification and preparation methods of mesoporous material-loaded composite hydrogels and highlight the applications of composite hydrogels in drug delivery, tumor therapy, antibacterial treatment, osteogenesis, hemostasis, and wound healing. We also summarize the latest research progress and point out future research directions. After searching, no research reporting these contents was found.

Abstract
Human cells, especially stem cells, need to communicate and interact with extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins, which not only serve as structural components but also guide and support cell fate and properties such as cell adhesion, proliferation, survival and differentiation. The binding of the cells with ECM proteins or ECM-derived peptides via cell adhesion receptors such as integrins activates several signaling pathways that determine the cell fate, morphological change, proliferation and differentiation. The development of synthetic ECM protein-derived peptides that mimic the biological and biochemical functions of natural ECM proteins will benefit academic and clinical application. Peptides derived from or inspired by specific ECM proteins can act as agonists of each ECM protein receptor. Given that most ECM proteins function in cell adhesion via integrin receptors, many peptides have been developed that bind to specific integrin receptors. In this review, we discuss the peptide sequence, immobilization design, reaction method, and functions of several ECM protein-derived peptides. Various peptide sequences derived from mainly ECM proteins, which are used for coating or grafting on dishes, scaffolds, hydrogels, implants or nanofibers, have been developed to improve the adhesion, proliferation or differentiation of stem cells and to culture differentiated cells. This review article will help to inform the optimal choice of ECM protein-derived peptides for the development of scaffolds, implants, hydrogels, nanofibers and 2D cell culture dishes to regulate the proliferation and direct the differentiation of stem cells into specific lineages.

Abstract
Supramolecular assembly based on aromatic interactions can provide well-defined nanostructures with an understanding of intermolecular interactions at the molecular level. The peptide assembly via a supramolecular approach can overcome the inherent limitations of bioactive peptides, such as proteolytic degradations and rapid internalizations into the cytosol. Although extensive research has been carried out on supramolecular peptide materials with a two-dimensional (2D) structure, more needs to be reported on biological activity studies using well-defined 2D peptide materials. Physical and chemical properties of the 2D peptide assembly attributed to their large surface area and flexibility can show low cytotoxicity, enhanced molecular loading, and higher bioconjugation efficiency in biological applications. Here, we report supramolecular 2D materials based on the pyrene-grafted amphiphilic peptide, which contains a peptide sequence (Asp-Gly-Glu-Ala; DGEA) that is reported to bind to the integrin α2β1 receptor in 2D cell membranes. The addition of octafluoronaphthalene (OFN) to the pyrene-grafted peptide could induce a well-ordered 2D assembly by face-centered arene-perfluoroarene stacking. The DGEA-peptide 2D assembly with a flat structure, structural stability against enzymatic degradations, and a larger size can enhance the proliferation and differentiation of muscle cells via continuous interactions with cell membrane receptors integrin α2β1 showing a low intracellular uptake (15%) compared to that (62%) of the vesicular peptide assembly. These supramolecular approaches via the arene-perfluoroarene interaction provide a strategy to fabricate well-defined 2D peptide materials with an understanding of assembly at the molecular level for the next-generation peptide materials.

Abstract
Organoids are stem cell-derived, self-organizing, 3D structures. Compared to the conventional 2D cell culture method, 3D cultured organoids contain a variety of cell types that can form functional "micro-organs" and can be used to simulate the occurrence process and physiological pathological state of organ tissues more effectively. Nanomaterials (NMs) are becoming indispensable in the development of novel organoids. Understanding the application of nanomaterials in organoid construction can, therefore, provide researchers with ideas for the development of novel organoids. Here, we discuss the application status of NMs in various organoid culture systems and the research direction of NMs combined with organoids in the biomedical field.

Abstract
Hydrogels are a promising drug delivery system for biomedical applications due to their biocompatibility and similarity to native tissue. Programming the release rate from hydrogels is critical to ensure release of desired dosage over specified durations, particularly with the advent of more complicated medical regimens such as combinatorial drug therapy. While it is known how hydrogel structure affects release, the parameters that can be explicitly controlled to modulate release ab initio could be useful for hydrogel design. In this review, we first survey common physical models of hydrogel release. We then extensively go through the various input parameters that we can exercise direct control over, at the levels of synthesis, formulation, fabrication and environment. We also illustrate some examples where hydrogels can be programmed with the input parameters for temporally and spatially defined release. Finally, we discuss the exciting potential and challenges for programming release, and potential implications with the advent of machine learning.

Abstract
Bone-grafting biological materials are commonly used to increase the height of the alveolar bone in the maxillary posterior region during maxillary sinus floor augmentation. However, there has been little research on the development of an injectable bone-grafting material with bacteriostatic, angiogenic, and osteogenic properties. In this work, we developed a triple-functional vancomycin/deferoxamine/dexamethasone (Van/DFO/Dex) liposome-hydrogel composite with desirable injectability. The release kinetics confirmed orderly sustained release of Van (a bacteriostat), DFO (a vascularised small molecule), and Dex (an osteogenic small molecule). In vitro findings demonstrated the favourable cytocompatibility and antibacterial ability of this composite against Staphylococcus aureus. Additionally, the angiogenic ability of human umbilical vein endothelial cells and osteogenic differentiation activity of MC3T3-E1 cells were enhanced. An in vivo bacteriostasis assay and rabbit maxillary sinus floor augmentation model corroborated the enhanced bacteriostasis and vascularised bone regeneration properties of this functionalised composite. Overall, the favourable injectability to be fit for the minimally invasive procedure, locally sustained release property, and prominent biological functions underscore the clinical potential of Van/DFO/Dex as an ideal bone-grafting material for irregular bone defect repairs, such as maxillary sinus floor augmentation.

Abstract
The use of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs) to regenerate and repair bone tissue defects is a complex research field of bone tissue engineering; nevertheless, it is a hot topic. One of the biggest problems is the limited survival and osteogenic capacity of the transplanted cells within the host tissue. Even for hBMSCs with their low immunogenicity, the body will still cause a local immune-inflammatory response directed against the allogeneic cells and thereby reduce the activity of the transplanted cells. Even in the case of successful transplantation, the lack of vascularization at the transplantation site makes it difficult for the transplanted cells to exchange nutrients and metabolic wastes that ultimately affects bone regeneration. In this study, we covalently modified alginate with RGD and QK peptides that were injected subcutaneously into immunocompetent mice. Histological analysis, as well as ELISA techniques, proved that this method is able to provide bioactive stem cell transplant beds containing functionalized biomaterials and vascularized surrounding tissues. Inflammation-related factors, such as IL-2, IL-6, TNF-α, and IFN-γ, around the cell graft beds decreased with time and were lowest at the second week. Then, the hBMSCs were injected into the cell transplantation beds intended to form vascularized bonelike tissues that were evaluated by micro-computed tomography (Micro CT), histological, and immunohistochemical analyses. The results showed that the expression of osteogenesis-related proteins RUNX2, COL1A1, and OPN, as well as the expression of angiogenic factor vWF and cartilage-related protein COL2A1 were significantly upregulated in the hBMSC-derived osteogenic tissue. These results suggest that the stem cell transplantation strategy by constructing bioactive cell transplant beds is effective to enhance the bone regeneration capacity of hBMSCs and holds great potential in bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
3D bioprinting has tremendous potential to revolutionize the field of regenerative medicine by automating the process of tissue engineering. A significant number of new and advanced bioprinting technologies have been developed in recent years, enabling the generation of increasingly accurate models of human tissues both in the healthy and diseased state. Accordingly, this technology has generated a demand for smart bioinks that can enable the rapid and efficient generation of human bioprinted tissues that accurately recapitulate the properties of the same tissue found in vivo. Here, we define smart bioinks as those that provide controlled release of factors in response to stimuli or combine multiple materials to yield novel properties for the bioprinting of human tissues. This perspective piece reviews the existing literature and examines the potential for the incorporation of micro and nanotechnologies into bioinks to enhance their properties. It also discusses avenues for future work in this cutting-edge field.

Abstract
Bone is one of the most sophisticated and dynamic tissues in the human body, and is characterized by its remarkable potential for regeneration. In most cases, bone has the capacity to be restored to its original form with homeostatic functionality after injury without any remaining scarring. Throughout the fascinating processes of bone regeneration, a plethora of cell lineages and signaling molecules, together with the extracellular matrix, are precisely regulated at multiple length and time scales. However, conditions, such as delayed unions (or nonunion) and critical-sized bone defects, represent thorny challenges for orthopedic surgeons. During recent decades, a variety of novel biomaterials have been designed to mimic the organic and inorganic structure of the bone microenvironment, which have tremendously promoted and accelerated bone healing throughout different stages of bone regeneration. Advances in tissue engineering endowed bone scaffolds with phenomenal osteoconductivity, osteoinductivity, vascularization and neurotization effects as well as alluring properties, such as antibacterial effects. According to the dimensional structure and functional mechanism, these biomaterials are categorized as zero-dimensional, one-dimensional, two-dimensional, three-dimensional, and four-dimensional biomaterials. In this review, we comprehensively summarized the astounding advances in emerging biomaterials for bone regeneration by categorizing them as zero-dimensional to four-dimensional biomaterials, which were further elucidated by typical examples. Hopefully, this review will provide some inspiration for the future design of biomaterials for bone tissue engineering.

Abstract
Natural hydrogels are one of the most promising biomaterials for tissue engineering applications, due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and extracellular matrix mimicking ability. To surpass the limitations of conventional fabrication techniques and to recapitulate the complex architecture of native tissue structure, natural hydrogels are being constructed using novel biofabrication strategies, such as textile techniques and three-dimensional bioprinting. These innovative techniques play an enormous role in the development of advanced scaffolds for various tissue engineering applications. The progress, advantages, and shortcomings of the emerging biofabrication techniques are highlighted in this review.

Abstract
For craniofacial bone regeneration, how to promote vascularized bone regeneration is still a significant problem, and the controlled release of trace elements vital to osteogenesis has attracted attention. In this study, an ion co-delivery system was developed to promote angiogenesis and osteogenesis. Magnesium ions (Mg2+) and lanthanum ions (La3+) were selected as biosignal molecules because Mg2+can promote angiogenesis and both of them can enhance bone formation. Microspheres made of poly(lactide-co-glycolide) were applied to load La2(CO3)3, which was embedded into a MgO/MgCO3-loaded cryogel made of photocrosslinkable gelatin methacryloyl to enable co-delivery of Mg2+and La3+. Evaluations of angiogenesis and osteogenesis were conducted via bothin vitrocell culture using human bone marrow mesenchymal stromal cells andin vivoimplantation using a rat model with calvarial defect (5 mm in diameter). Compared to systems releasing only Mg2+or La3+, the combination system demonstrated more significant effects on blood vessels formation, thereby promoting the regeneration of vascularized bone tissue. At 8 weeks post-implantation, the new bone volume/total bone volume ratio reached a value of 40.1 ± 0.9%. In summary, a properly designed scaffold system with the capacity to release ions of different bioactivities in a desired pattern can be a promising strategy to meet vascularized bone regeneration requirements.

Controlled release of dopamine coatings on titanium bidirectionally regulate osteoclastic and osteogenic response behaviors. MATERIALS SCIENCE & ENGINEERING. C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2021; 129:112376.

Abstract
Bone diseases, for example, osteoporosis, cause excessive differentiation of osteoclasts and decreased bone formation, resulting in imbalance of bone remodeling and poor osseointegration, which can be considered a relative contraindication for titanium implants. Dopamine (DA) might provide a solution to this problem by inhibiting osteoclasts and promoting osteoblasts at different concentrations. However, current commercial implants cannot load bone-active molecules, such as DA. Therefore, this study aimed to develop a surface modification method for implants to achieve a controlled release of DA and enhance the resistance of titanium implants to bone resorption and bone regeneration. DA-loaded alginate-arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) (AlgR) coatings on a vaterite-modified titanium surface were successfully assembled, which continuously and steadily released DA. In vitro studies have shown that materials showing good biocompatibility can not only inhibit receptor activator of nuclear factor-kappa B (NFκB) ligand (RANKL)-induced osteoclastogenesis but also enhance the adhesion and osteogenic differentiation of human bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (hBMSCs). The optimal DA-loaded concentration of this bidirectional regulation is 100 μM. Interestingly, DA more effectively attenuated osteoclastogenesis when released in a sustained manner from titanium coatings than it did via traditional, free administration, and the alginate-RGD coating and DA clearly exhibited great synergy. This study provides a design of titanium implant surface modification to improve bone remodeling around implants.

Abstract
A plethora of applications using polysaccharides have been developed in recent years due to their availability as well as their frequent nontoxicity and biodegradability. These polymers are usually obtained from renewable sources or are byproducts of industrial processes, thus, their use is collaborative in waste management and shows promise for an enhanced sustainable circular economy. Regarding the development of novel delivery systems for biotherapeutics, the potential of polysaccharides is attractive for the previously mentioned properties and also for the possibility of chemical modification of their structures, their ability to form matrixes of diverse architectures and mechanical properties, as well as for their ability to maintain bioactivity following incorporation of the biomolecules into the matrix. Biotherapeutics, such as proteins, growth factors, gene vectors, enzymes, hormones, DNA/RNA, and antibodies are currently in use as major therapeutics in a wide range of pathologies. In the present review, we summarize recent progress in the development of polysaccharide-based hydrogels of diverse nature, alone or in combination with other polymers or drug delivery systems, which have been implemented in the delivery of biotherapeutics in the pharmaceutical and biomedical fields.

Abstract
Wound healing is a well-orchestrated dynamic and interactive process, which needs a favorable microenvironment and suitable angiogenesis. Platelet derived growth factor-BB (PDGF-BB) plays a crucial role in wound healing. However, the short half-life of PDGF-BB limits its efficacy. In the present study, we successfully synthesized an injectable hydrogel with sodium alginate (SA) and dextran (Dex) as a delivery system to simultaneously deliver PDGF-BB and bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) in the wound. Our work demonstrates that the PDGF-BB protein enhanced the survival, migration and endothelial cell (EC) differentiation of BMSCs in vitro. The PDGF-BB/SA/Dex hydrogels could sustainably release PDGF-BB with excellent biocompatibility in vitro and in vivo. Besides, these composite hydrogels loaded with BMSCs could accelerate wound healing by improving epithelialization and collagen deposition. In addition, the PDGF-BB/SA/Dex hydrogels promoted the EC-differentiation of transplanted BMSCs and proliferation of hair follicle stem cells in the wound. Furthermore, the expressions of angiogenesis-specific markers, PDGFR-β, p-PI3K, p-Akt, and p-eNOS, were obviously increased in the PDGF-BB/SA/Dex/BMSCs group. In conclusion, the PDGF-BB/SA/Dex injectable hydrogels could accelerate BMSC-mediated skin wound healing by promoting angiogenesis via the activation of the PDGF-BB/PDGFR-β-mediated PI3K/Akt/eNOS pathway, which may provide a new therapeutic strategy for stem cell therapy in wound healing.

Abstract
The efficient and safe delivery of therapeutic drugs, proteins, and nucleic acids are essential for meaningful therapeutic benefits. The field of nanomedicine shows promising implications in the development of therapeutics by delivering diagnostic and therapeutic compounds. Nanomedicine development has led to significant advances in the design and engineering of nanocarrier systems with supra-molecular structures. Smart mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs), with excellent biocompatibility, tunable physicochemical properties, and site-specific functionalization, offer efficient and high loading capacity as well as robust and targeted delivery of a variety of payloads in a controlled fashion. Such unique nanocarriers should have great potential for challenging biomedical applications, such as tissue engineering, bioimaging techniques, stem cell research, and cancer therapies. However, in vivo applications of these nanocarriers should be further validated before clinical translation. To this end, this review begins with a brief introduction of MSNs properties, targeted drug delivery, and controlled release with a particular emphasis on their most recent diagnostic and therapeutic applications.

Abstract
Stem cells demonstrate considerable promise for various preclinical and clinical applications, including drug screening, disease treatments, and regenerative medicine. Producing high-quality and large amounts of stem cells is in demand for these applications. Despite challenges, as hydrogel-based cell culture technology has developed, tremendous progress has been made in stem cell expansion and directed differentiation. Hydrogels are soft materials with abundant water. Many hydrogel properties, including biodegradability, mechanical strength, and porosity, have been shown to play essential roles in regulating stem cell proliferation and differentiation. The biochemical and physical properties of hydrogels can be specifically tailored to mimic the native microenvironment that various stem cells reside in vivo. A few hydrogel-based systems have been developed for successful stem cell cultures and expansion in vitro. In this review, we summarize various types of hydrogels that have been designed to effectively enhance the proliferation of hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), and pluripotent stem cells (PSCs), respectively. According to each stem cell type's preference, we also discuss strategies for fabricating hydrogels with biochemical and mechanical cues and other characteristics representing microenvironments of stem cells in vivo. STATEMENT OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this review article we summarize current progress on the construction of hydrogel systems for the culture and expansion of various stem cells, including hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs), mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs), and pluripotent stem cells (PSCs). The Significance includes: (1) Provide detailed discussion on the stem cell niches that should be considered for stem cell in vitro expansion. (2) Summarize various strategies to construct hydrogels that can largely recapture the microenvironment of native stem cells. (3) Suggest a few future directions that can be implemented to improve current in vitro stem cell expansion systems.

Abstract
Fractures are one of the most frequently occurring traumatic events worldwide. Approximately 10% of fractures lead to bone healing disorders, resulting in strain for affected patients and enormous costs for society. In order to shed light into underlying mechanisms of bone regeneration (habitual or disturbed), and to develop new therapeutic strategies, various in vivo, ex vivo and in vitro models can be applied. Undeniably, in vivo models include the systemic and biological situation. However, transferability towards the human patient along with ethical concerns regarding in vivo models have to be considered. Fostered by enormous technical improvements, such as bioreactors, on-a-chip-technologies and bone tissue engineering, sophisticated in vitro models are of rising interest. These models offer the possibility to use human cells from individual donors, complex cell systems and 3D models, therefore bridging the transferability gap, providing a platform for the introduction of personalized precision medicine and finally sparing animals. Facing diverse processes during fracture healing and thus various scientific opportunities, the reliability of results oftentimes depends on the choice of an appropriate model. Hence, we here focus on categorizing available models with respect to the requirements of the scientific approach.

Abstract
Bone diseases constitute a major issue for modern societies as a consequence of progressive aging. Advantages such as open mesoporous channel, high specific surface area, ease of surface modification, and multifunctional integration are the driving forces for the application of mesoporous nanoparticles (MNs) in bone disease diagnosis and treatment. To achieve better therapeutic effects, it is necessary to understand the properties of MNs and cargo delivery mechanisms, which are the foundation and key in the design of MNs. The main types and characteristics of MNs for bone regeneration, such as mesoporous silica (mSiO2 ), mesoporous hydroxyapatite (mHAP), mesoporous calcium phosphates (mCaPs) are introduced. Additionally, the relationship between the cargo release mechanisms and bone regeneration of MNs-based nanocarriers is elucidated in detail. Particularly, MNs-based smart cargo transport strategies such as sustained cargo release, stimuli-responsive (e.g., pH, photo, ultrasound, and multi-stimuli) controllable delivery, and specific bone-targeted therapy for bone disease diagnosis and treatment are analyzed and discussed in depth. Lastly, the conclusions and outlook about the design and development of MNs-based cargo delivery systems in diagnosis and treatment for bone tissue engineering are provided to inspire new ideas and attract researchers' attention from multidisciplinary areas spanning chemistry, materials science, and biomedicine.

[PMID: 34031952 DOI: 10.1002/psc.3335] [Citation(s) in RCA: 19] [Impact Index Per Article: 6.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 02/25/2021] [Revised: 04/22/2021] [Accepted: 04/26/2021] [Indexed: 12/16/2022]
Abstract
Improving cell-material interactions is a major goal in tissue engineering. In this regard, functionalization of biomaterials with cell instructive molecules from the extracellular matrix stands out as a powerful strategy to enhance their bioactivity and achieve optimal tissue integration. However, current functionalization strategies, like the use of native full-length proteins, are associated with drawbacks, thus urging the need of developing new methodologies. In this regard, the use of synthetic peptides encompassing specific bioactive regions of proteins represents a promising alternative. In particular, the combination of peptide sequences with complementary or synergistic effects makes it possible to address more than one biological target at the biomaterial surface. In this review, an overview of the main strategies using peptides to install multifunctionality on biomaterials is presented, mostly focusing on the combination of the RGD motif with other peptides sequences. The evolution of these approaches, starting from simple methods, like using peptide mixtures, to more advanced systems of peptide presentation, with very well defined chemical properties, are explained. For each system of peptide's presentation, three main aspects of multifunctionality-improving receptor selectivity, mimicking the extracellular matrix and preventing bacterial colonization while improving cell adhesion-are highlighted.

Abstract
Recently, biomaterials for cartilage regeneration has been intensively investigated. However, the development of scaffolds that capture regenerated cartilage with biomechanical and structural recovery has rarely been reported. To address this challenge, platelet-rich plasma (PRP)-based cartilage constructs with a well-orchestrated symphony of cellular, biochemical and biomechanical elements were prepared by simultaneously employing chondrogenic progenitor cells (CPCs) as a cell source, optimizing platelet concentration, and adding an enzyme-ion activator. It was shown that this triple-optimized PRP + CPC construct possessed increased biomechanical properties and suitable biochemical signals. The following in vitro study demonstrated that the triple-optimized PRP + CPC constructs generated cartilage-like tissue with higher expression levels of chondrogenic-specific markers, more deposition of cartilage-specific extracellular matrix (ECM), and greater biomechanical values than those of the other constructs. Twelve weeks after the construct was implanted in a cartilage defect in vivo, histological analysis, qPCR, and biomechanical tests collectively showed that the triple-optimized constructs yielded a more chondrocyte-like cell phenotype with a higher synthesis of Col-II and aggrecan. More importantly, the triple-optimized constructs facilitated cartilage regeneration with better biomechanical recovery than that of the other constructs. These results demonstrate the efficacy of the triple-optimization strategy and highlight the simplicity and potency of this PRP + CPC construct for cartilage regeneration. Cartilage tissue engineering has been intensively investigated. We designed a PRP-based construct with favorable cell source, reinforced scaffold and appropriate biofactors. This designed construct can facilitate cartilage regeneration with biomechanical and structural recovery simultaneously. The favorable performance of the proposed scaffolds highlights the triple-optimization strategy to improve cartilage engineering.

Three-Dimensional Printing of Hydroxyapatite Composites for Biomedical Application. CRYSTALS 2021. [DOI: 10.3390/cryst11040353] [Citation(s) in RCA: 21] [Impact Index Per Article: 7.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Indexed: 02/06/2023]
Abstract
Hydroxyapatite (HA) and HA-based nanocomposites have been recognized as ideal biomaterials in hard tissue engineering because of their compositional similarity to bioapatite. However, the traditional HA-based nanocomposites fabrication techniques still limit the utilization of HA in bone, cartilage, dental, applications, and other fields. In recent years, three-dimensional (3D) printing has been shown to provide a fast, precise, controllable, and scalable fabrication approach for the synthesis of HA-based scaffolds. This review therefore explores available 3D printing technologies for the preparation of porous HA-based nanocomposites. In the present review, different 3D printed HA-based scaffolds composited with natural polymers and/or synthetic polymers are discussed. Furthermore, the desired properties of HA-based composites via 3D printing such as porosity, mechanical properties, biodegradability, and antibacterial properties are extensively explored. Lastly, the applications and the next generation of HA-based nanocomposites for tissue engineering are discussed.

Abstract
Hydrogel scaffolds are widely used in cartilage tissue engineering as a natural stem cell niche. In particular, hydrogels based on multiple biological signals can guide behaviors of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) during neo-chondrogenesis. In the first phase of this study, we showed that functionalized hydrogels with grafted arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) peptides and lower degree of crosslinking can promote the proliferation of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and upregulate the expression of cell receptor proteins. Moreover, grafted RGD and histidine-alanine-valine (HAV) peptides in hydrogel scaffolds can regulate the adhesion of the intercellular at an early stage. In the second phase, we confirmed that simultaneous use of HAV and RGD peptides led to greater chondrogenic differentiation compared to the blank control and single-peptide groups. Furthermore, the controlled release of kartogenin (KGN) can better facilitate cell chondrogenesis compared to other groups. Interestingly, with longer culture time, cell condensation was clearly observed in the groups with RGD and HAV peptide. In all groups with RGD peptide, significant matrix deposition was observed, accompanied by glycosaminoglycan (GAG) and collagen (Coll) production. Through in vitro and in vivo experiments, this study confirmed that our hydrogel system can sequentially promote the proliferation, adhesion, condensation, chondrogenic differentiation of hMSCs, by mimicking the cell microenvironment during neo-chondrogenesis.

Abstract
Crocin, as one of the biologically active components of saffron, has anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant, anti-depressant and auxiliary anti-tumor effects. Studies have shown that crocin could promote breast cancer cell apoptosis. However, conventional methods are mainly based on two-dimensional (2D) cell culture models, which are difficult to reproduce the tumor environment in vivo due to space constraints. In this study, we prepared a three-dimensional (3D) cell model in vitro based on sodium alginate/gelatin to evaluate the inhibitory effect of crocin on MCF-7 cells, which could bridge the gap in crocin drug evaluation between 2D and 3D cell model in vitro. Different from the 2D culture, the cells were found to aggregate in a spherical shape in the 3D microgel beads. And the CCK-8 assay showed that the growth of MCF-7 cells exposed to crocin was inhibited in a time-related and concentration-related manner. Compared with 2D culture (IC50 that MCF-7 cells treated with crocin at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h: 3.68, 2.55 and 1.53 mg/mL, respectively), the IC50 value of 3D culture (IC50 that MCF-7 cells treated with crocin at 24 h, 48 h, 72 h: 10.12, 6.89 and 6.64 mg/mL, respectively) was significantly increased by 2.77, 2.70, 4.34 times, respectively. Besides, live/dead staining and scanning electron microscope (SEM) revealed that the 2D cultured cells shrank and ruptured after crocin treatment, and the number of living cells was considerably reduced; the size of the cell colonies in the 3D microgel beads decreased.

Abstract
Due to the ability to combine multiple osteogenic induction "cues" at the same time, hydrogels are widely used in the three-dimensional (3D) culture of human mesenchymal stem cells (hMSCs) and osteoinduction. However, the survival and proliferation of stem cells in a 3D culture system are limited, which reduces their osteogenic differentiation efficiency. In addition, the cells inside the hydrogel are prone to apoptosis due to hypoxia, which is a serious challenge for tissue engineering based on stem cells. In this study, a tripeptide-based macroporous alginate hydrogel was prepared to improve the osteogenic microenvironment of stem cells. The arginine-glycine-aspartate (RGD) peptide promoted the adhesion and proliferation of stem cells, and the degradation of gelatin microspheres (GMs) produced a macroporous structure to enhance further the migration and aggregation of stem cells. Mesoporous silica nanoparticles (MSNs) sustained-release bone-forming peptide-1 (BFP-1) induced osteogenic differentiation, and the sustained release of the QK peptide from the GMs promoted angiogenesis. In vitro experiments have shown that this functionalized hydrogel stimulates the proliferation of hMSCs, encourages larger cell cluster formation, and enhances the osteogenic differentiation efficiency. The released QK facilitates the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells. In vivo experiments have also verified that this system has a better osteogenic effect, and more blood vessels were observed inside the hydrogel, than in other systems. In general, this research has led to the development of a tripeptide macroporous hydrogel that can simultaneously promote osteogenesis and angiogenesis, showing great promise for applications of 3D cultures and stem cell-based tissue engineering.

Abstract
The application of additive manufacturing in the biomedical field has become a hot topic in the last decade owing to its potential to provide personalized solutions for patients. Different bioinks have been designed trying to obtain a unique concoction that addresses all the needs for tissue engineering and drug delivery purposes, among others. Despite the remarkable progress made, the development of suitable bioinks which combine printability, cytocompatibility, and biofunctionality is still a challenge. In this sense, the well-established synthetic and functionalization routes to prepare nanoparticles with different functionalities make them excellent candidates to be combined with polymeric systems in order to generate suitable multi-functional bioinks. In this review, we briefly discuss the most recent advances in the design of functional nanocomposite hydrogels considering their already evaluated or potential use as bioinks. The scientific development over the last few years is reviewed, focusing the discussion on the wide range of functionalities that can be incorporated into 3D bioprinted constructs through the addition of multifunctional nanoparticles in order to increase their regenerative potential in the field of tissue engineering.

Abstract
OBJECTIVES To improve the biocompatibility and osteogenic activity of demineralized dentin matrix (DDM) by grafting peptides on its surface. METHODS DDM was obtained by pulverizing extracted human teeth that had been systematically demineralized and dried. Four groups of materials were evaluated: DDM, DDM/carboxymethyl chitosan (CMC), DDM/CMC/bone forming peptide-1 (BFP-1), and blank. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) and fluorescence localization were used to characterize the surface of the DDM materials. Cell viability was assessed using a CCK8 assay, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and in vitro osteogenesis was analyzed using real-time RT-PCR (RT-qPCR) and Alizarin red and alkaline phosphatase staining. Three different materials were implanted into mandibular bone defects in rats. After 8 weeks, bone regeneration was assessed by histomorphometry of HE-stained slides. RESULTS FT-IR, XPS, and fluorescence microscopy demonstrated that the DDM surfaces were successfully modified with BFP-1. The CCK8 assay indicated that the proliferation of cells is higher on the DDM/CMC/BFP-1 material than on DDM or DDM/CMC (P < 0.05). Cells were more likely to adhere to DDM/CMC/BFP-1, as observed by SEM. Greater in vitro osteogenesis was observed in the DDM/CMC/BFP-1 group which displayed stronger alkaline phosphatase activity, more alizarin red-stained nodules, and higher target gene expression, as detected by RT-qPCR (P<0.05). HE staining of in vivo explants indicated that greater quantities of new bone had formed in the DDM/CMC/BFP-1 group. SIGNIFICANCE Compared with DDM, DDM/CMC/BFP-1 exhibited superior biocompatibility and osteogenesis, using a method of surface modification that has great potential for future clinical use.

Abstract
The reconstruction or repair of oral and maxillofacial functionalities and aesthetics is a priority for patients affected by tooth loss, congenital defects, trauma deformities, or various dental diseases. Therefore, in dental medicine, tissue reconstruction represents a major interest in oral and maxillofacial surgery, periodontics, orthodontics, endodontics, and even daily clinical practice. The current clinical approaches involve a vast array of techniques ranging from the traditional use of tissue grafts to the most innovative regenerative procedures, such as tissue engineering. In recent decades, a wide range of both artificial and natural biomaterials and scaffolds, genes, stem cells isolated from the mouth area (dental follicle, deciduous teeth, periodontal ligament, dental pulp, salivary glands, and adipose tissue), and various growth factors have been tested in tissue engineering approaches in dentistry, with many being proven successful. However, to fully eliminate the problems of traditional bone and tissue reconstruction in dentistry, continuous research is needed. Based on a recent literature review, this paper creates a picture of current innovative strategies applying dental stem cells for tissue regeneration in different dental fields and maxillofacial surgery, and offers detailed information regarding the available scientific data and practical applications.

C, MATERIALS FOR BIOLOGICAL APPLICATIONS 2020; 118:111477.

Abstract
The extracellular matrix (ECM) affects cell behaviors, such as survival, proliferation, motility, invasion, and differentiation. The arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) sequence is present in several ECM proteins, such as fibronectin, collagen type I, fibrinogen, laminin, vitronectin, and osteopontin. It is very critical to develop ECM-like substrates with well-controlled features for the investigation of influence of RGD on the behavior of tumor cells. In this study, poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG)-crosslinked poly(methyl vinyl ether-alt-maleic acid) (P(MVE-alt-MA)) hydrogels (PEMM) with different RGD contents were synthesized, fully characterized, and established as in vitro culture platforms to investigate the effects of RGD content on cancer stem cell (CSC) enrichment. The morphology, proliferation, and viability of SK-OV-3 ovarian cancer cells cultured on hydrogels with different RGD contents, the expression of CSC markers and malignant signaling pathway-related genes, and drug resistance were systematically evaluated. The cell aggregates formed on the hydrogel surface with a lower RGD content acquired certain CSC-like properties, thus drug resistance was enhanced. In contrast, the drug sensitivity of cells on the higher RGD content surface increased because of less CSC-like properties. However, the presence of RGD in the stiff hydrogels (PEMM2) had less effect on the stemness expression than did its presence in the soft hydrogels (PEMM1). The results suggest that RGD content and matrix stiffness can lead to synergetic effects on the expression of cancer cell stemness and the epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), interleukin-6 (IL-6), and Wnt pathways.

Abstract
Designing bone adhesives with adhesiveness, antideformation, biocompatibility, and biofunctional effects has great practical significance for bone defect reconstructive treatment, especially for bone graft repair surgery. Here, we designed zeolitic imidazolate framework-8 nanoparticle (ZIF-8 NP)-modified catechol-chitosan (CA-CS) multifunctional hydrogels (CA-CS/Z) to stabilize the bone graft environment, ensure blood supply, promote osteogenic differentiation, and accelerate bone reconstruction. Characterizations confirmed the successful synthesis of CA-CS/Z hydrogels. Hydrogels exhibited advanced rheological properties, reliable mechanical strength, and excellent adhesion for clinical applications. Based on excellent biocompatibility, it could enhance paracrine of the vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (rBMSCs) to ensure blood supply reconstruction in bone defect areas. Furthermore, the ZIF-8 NPs released from the hydrogels could also up-regulate the production and secretion of alkaline phosphatase, collagen 1, and osteocalcin, promoting the osteogenic differentiation of rBMSCs. In addition, the antibacterial properties of CA-CS/Z could also be observed. In vivo experiments further provided a powerful proof that CA-CS/Z promoted vascularized osteogenesis in wound areas by stabilizing bone graft materials and greatly accelerated the speed and healing of bone reconstruction. These results indicate the promising potential of CA-CS/Z hydrogels with promoting implantation stability, angiogenesis, and osteogenesis for bone regeneration applications.

Abstract
The rational choice and design of biomaterials for biomedical applications is crucial for successful in vitro and in vivo strategies, ultimately dictating their performance and potential clinical applications. Alginate, a marine-derived polysaccharide obtained from seaweeds, is one of the most widely used polymers in the biomedical field, particularly to build three dimensional (3D) systems for in vitro culture and in vivo delivery of cells. Despite their biocompatibility, alginate hydrogels often require modifications to improve their biological activity, namely via inclusion of mammalian cell-interactive domains and fine-tuning of mechanical properties. These modifications enable the addition of new features for greater versatility and control over alginate-based systems, extending the plethora of applications and procedures where they can be used. Additionally, hybrid systems based on alginate combination with other components can also be explored to improve the mimicry of extracellular microenvironments and their dynamics. This review provides an overview on alginate properties and current clinical applications, along with different strategies that have been reported to improve alginate hydrogels performance as 3D matrices and 4D dynamic systems.

Abstract
Advances in microscale 3D cell culture systems have helped to elucidate cellular physiology, understand mechanisms of stem cell differentiation, produce pathophysiological models, and reveal important cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions. An important consideration for such studies is the choice of material for encapsulating cells and associated extracellular matrix (ECM). This Review focuses on the use of alginate hydrogels, which are versatile owing to their simple gelation process following an ionic cross-linking mechanism in situ, with no need for procedures that can be potentially toxic to cells, such as heating, the use of solvents, and UV exposure. This Review aims to give some perspectives, particularly to researchers who typically work more with poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS), on the use of alginate as an alternative material to construct microphysiological cell culture systems. More specifically, this Review describes how physicochemical characteristics of alginate hydrogels can be tuned with regards to their biocompatibility, porosity, mechanical strength, ligand presentation, and biodegradability. A number of cell culture applications are also described, and these are subcategorized according to whether the alginate material is used to homogeneously embed cells, to micropattern multiple cellular microenvironments, or to provide an outer shell that creates a space in the core for cells and other ECM components. The Review ends with perspectives on future challenges and opportunities for 3D cell culture applications.

Abstract
Silica nanomaterials (SNMs) and their composites have recently been investigated as scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. SNM scaffolds possess the ability to encourage bone cell growth and also allow the simultaneous delivery of biologically active biomolecules that are encapsulated in the mesopores. Their high mechanical strength, low cytotoxicity, ability to stimulate both the proliferation and osteogenic differentiation of progenitor cells make the SNMs appropriate scaffolds. Their physiochemical properties facilitate the cell spreading process, allow easy access to nutrients and help the cell-cell communication process during bone tissue engineering. The ability to deliver small biomolecules, such as dexamethasone, different growth factors, vitamins and mineral ions depends on the morphology, porosity, and crystallinity of SNMs and their composites with other polymeric materials. In this review, the abilities of SNMs to perform as suitable scaffolds for bone tissue engineering are comprehensively discussed.

Abstract
Vascularization has a pivotal role in engineering successful tissue constructs. However, it remains a major hurdle of bone tissue engineering, especially in clinical applications for the treatment of large bone defects. Development of vascularized and clinically-relevant engineered bone substitutes with sufficient blood supply capable of maintaining implant viability and supporting subsequent host tissue integration remains a major challenge. Since only cells that are 100-200 µm from blood vessels can receive oxygen through diffusion, engineered constructs that are thicker than 400 µm face a challenging oxygenation problem. Following implantation in vivo, spontaneous ingrowth of capillaries in thick engineered constructs is too slow. Thus, it is critical to provide optimal conditions to support vascularization in engineered bone constructs. To achieve this, an in-depth understanding of the mechanisms of angiogenesis and bone development is required. In addition, it is also important to mimic the physiological milieu of native bone to fabricate more successful vascularized bone constructs. Numerous applications of engineered vascularization with cell-and/or microfabrication-based approaches seek to meet these aims. Three-dimensional (3D) printing promises to create patient-specific bone constructs in the future. In this review, we discuss the major components of fabricating vascularized 3D bioprinted bone constructs, analyze their related challenges, and highlight promising future trends.

Abstract
Four-dimensional (4D) bioprinting, in which the concept of time is integrated with three-dimensional (3D) bioprinting as the fourth dimension, has currently emerged as the next-generation solution of tissue engineering as it presents the possibility of constructing complex, functional structures. 4D bioprinting can be used to fabricate dynamic 3D-patterned biological architectures that will change their shapes under various stimuli by employing stimuli-responsive materials. The functional transformation and maturation of printed cell-laden constructs over time are also regarded as 4D bioprinting, providing unprecedented potential for bone tissue engineering. The shape memory properties of printed structures cater to the need for personalized bone defect repair and the functional maturation procedures promote the osteogenic differentiation of stem cells. In this review, we introduce the application of different stimuli-responsive biomaterials in tissue engineering and a series of 4D bioprinting strategies based on functional transformation of printed structures. Furthermore, we discuss the application of 4D bioprinting in bone tissue engineering, as well as the current challenges and future perspectives. STATEMENTS OF SIGNIFICANCE: In this review, we have demonstrated the 4D bioprinting technologies, which integrate the concept of time within the traditional 3D bioprinting technology as the fourth dimension and facilitate the fabrications of complex, functional biological architectures. These 4D bioprinting structures could go through shape or functional transformation over time via using different stimuli-responsive biomaterials and a series of 4D bioprinting strategies. Moreover, by summarizing potential applications of 4D bioprinting in the field of bone tissue engineering, these emerging technologies could fulfill unaddressed medical requirements. The further discussions about future challenges and perspectives will give us more inspirations about widespread applications of this emerging technology for tissue engineering in biomedical field.

Muscle cells secrete bioactive myokines that elicit autocrine and paracrine effects and initiate signaling pathways for regenerating damaged muscle and bone. Mesenchymal stem/stromal cells (MSCs) are under investigation for the regeneration of both muscle and bone through their potent secretome. Compared to monodisperse cells, MSC spheroids exhibit a more complex secretome with heightened therapeutic potential. We hypothesized that the osteogenic potential of myokines would be enhanced when myoblasts were exposed to the MSC spheroid secretome. Conditioned media from MSC spheroids increased osteogenic response of MC3T3 pre-osteoblasts compared to myokines from L6 myoblasts alone. This effect was synergistically enhanced when conditioned media of MSC spheroids was serially delivered to myoblasts and then osteoprogenitor cells in vitro. We then delivered myoblast-stimulated conditioned media in the presence or absence of syngeneic rat bone marrow stromal cells (rBMSCs) from alginate hydrogels to a rat critical-sized segmental defect. We observed increased bone formation in defects treated with conditioned media compared to rBMSCs alone, while bone formation was greatest in defects treated with both conditioned media and rBMSCs over 12 weeks. This foundational study demonstrates a novel approach for capitalizing on the paracrine signaling of muscle cells to promote bone repair and provides additional evidence of the synergistic interaction between muscle and bone.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the influence of the in vitro osteogenic differentiation status on the in vivo bone regeneration of cell/chitosan microspheres qualitatively and quantitatively. To this end, rat bone-marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (BMSCs) were seeded onto apatite-coated chitosan microspheres. The constructs were osteogenically differentiated for 0, 7, 14, and 21 days followed by calvarial defect implantation in vivo for up to 8 weeks. In vitro studies showed that BMSCs in the constructs proliferated from day 0 to day 7. The activity and gene expression of alkaline phosphatise increased from day 0 to day 14 and then decreased. The gene expression of collagen type I and osteocalcin peaked at day 21. In vivo, constructs retrieved from day 0 group were filled with fibrous tissues and capillaries, but no bone formation was observed. Constructs retrieved from day 7 and day 21 groups showed progressive bone formation, whereas those retrieved from day 14 group had the highest percentage of bone formation. These data suggested that to generate a substantial amount of bone in vivo, not only the in vitro osteogenic differentiation was necessary, but also the period of pre-differentiation was important for the cell-scaffold constructs. The period of pre-differentiation for 14 days was found to be the most suitable for chitosan microspheres.
